Where I live I dont get that good of reception with it at all!!! If it was better, then I would for sure pay the $12.95/month...since its free right now I dont mind, but unless it gets better I dont think I will continue it.

my Sirius had "no signal" for 3 straight days, and 6-7 hours on another day.

everytime (at least a dozen times now) i call sirius to resend a signal (to change to the standard plan), it never comes through. either sirius is consistently lying to me or someone at longo didnt install my sirius correctly.

the worst part is when i take it to longo, the service guy and pdi dept say its because i'm on a family plan or demo plan.

i'd pay for sirius if worked properly.

I like my sirus.. I have had no complaints I took the stock one out and hooked up the one that came with my screen and it worked better than the one from scion... The signal was stronger/

THe one thing I can't get to like on Sirius (and XM for that matter) is the rap stations. I can't find 1 station that I can sit and listen to for any period of time without getting annoyed or just not enjoying the music.

I guess I want less ghetto thug music and more good, newer music.

Sometime I listen to shade45 and think...man o man, did they just have a 30 minute conversation without one complete and understandable sentence?!?!?!?

Those gun shot sounds get old quick too

Is there a way to see the full name of an artist or the full name of a song (when the song title/artist name is really long)? I have pressed every button, trying to see if it will scroll or something.

Unfortunately, I don't think so. Thats the worst non-feature of this stereo aside from the sound.

I would how many other people actually walked away from the Longo install.
Free service and equipment ,but I'd rather keep my kenwood in there with the mp3 player connection that I did instead of going back to my stock headunit. :D

I have had serious on my tc more than a year and it only cut off a few times with out any problems I loved it. When my wife had her serious installed at Longo I was hyping it up to her. I told her that she would never have to listen to regular radio. IT WAS A JOKE! the system would cut off on her ALL the time. She got sick of it and now listens to KissFM. I look like a lier to her because I had never had any problems with the unit.
I think that the problem is in the Pionner radios. They do not have a buffer or cash. I think that the antenna also sucks and is SOO BIG. I will end up changing it and see how it works with my old small antenna.
